@awilkinson The link in your post has some photos, but what are the stats? What’s the lot size, house size? Photos of lot and exterior?

I have a quandary for you, Twitter: Anyone on the market for a stunning house in Victoria BC? (Rent or Buy) A few years ago, I built my dream house. And now I need to eat some very humble pie. I made every mistake imaginable in terms of mismanaging costs, always choosing the nicest options, and over-building. The house is absurdly nice, gorgeously designed, and turnkey for a family, with tons of amenities. This would all be fine. It barely mattered at the time — I planned to stay in the house for a decade or more. But...then last year I got divorced. I ended up having to buy a new house for myself, then my ex ended up not wanting the house we'd built in the divorce. Now I'm sitting on this absolutely stunning house, and in this market it's worth far less than what I paid. So, here's my situation. I'd love creative ideas or leads for buyers/renters. These are the options I've thought of so far: - Sell it in a down market for a 40% loss (pros: simple, one and done, out of sight out of mind cons: no ability to write off the tax loss, feels F'd to take a hit like this) - Short-term rent on AirBnB (pros: may pay for itself cons: potentially choppy demand for a house this large + management headaches + investment in furnishing it) - Long-term rental (pros: simple, don't have to furnish, may pay for itself cons: most people renting a house like this could just buy their own) - What else am I missing? Movie shoots? House swaps? Rent it to a bunch of college kids? - Office rentals? I'm all ears. Would love some ideas, or, if you know someone who wants to buy or rent a ridiculous house in Victoria for a good deal, DM me. This is the house: andrearodman.com/work-3/oak-bay

I spent most of my life primarily driven by FOMO (fear of missing out), even after selling Twitch. Here’s how I learned to finally break away from that toxic cycle:

Keep hearing of train burglaries in LA on the scanner so went to #LincolnHeights to see it all. And… there’s looted packages as far as the eye can see. Amazon packages, @UPS boxes, unused Covid tests, fishing lures, epi pens. Cargo containers left busted open on trains. @CBSLA

After 10 years of building consumer social apps, I've decided to start exploring new areas. Building these products is an unforgiving grind—but I learned a lot along the way. For those embarking on this path, here's everything you need to know: TIME FOR A THREAD 👇

A bit of a surprise as 3 Pigs BBQ wasn’t in downtown San Mateo very long.

I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of startup pitch meetings and then asked it to re-create a startup pitch meeting of its own. Here is the first page.

This is the first example I have seen of automatic object substitution to create #augmentedreality that fits within the environment. With a #technology like this, it's up to the creatives to unleash their imagination. #mixedreality Full article below 👇
